Hey, It's monday..

Friends, i am really sleepless, i can't sleep ! haha!

It's monday today.. nothing special :)
I just want to share my monday devotional notes :)

BE STILL, AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD

so in the Scripture of Acts chapter 4

God's message is :
Even if all of the unbelievers persecute you, be still.. The enemies.. were always there..
You know, enemies have their strength to keep us away to the Lord when we show weaknesses.
On the v.2 says SPEAK TRUTH.
Persecution makes you strong even if everyone is against you.
- Maybe this is the one i've been holding on for a long time..
Everyone persecutes me.. but still I'm holding on to my faith. Because as they said you will only know the truth if you follow the truth :)


V3 - They caught and they jailed.. but still, the power of their words still worked because everybody knows the truth but they don't believe in it.

V 7-8 - "We are doing this in the Lord's name." Because of the faith of the paralyzed man, He was healed.
Just like us, If we have faith, we have nothing to worry about..
We don't have to worry about everything, simply because we have..
Have you heard the song "TODAY IS THE DAY"?
It has lyrics like these..
"and i won't worry about tomorrow, i'm trusting on what You say, Today is the Day".
Just put your Trust to God.
Whatever is in our mind right now, whatever you burden is, i Know, it will be healed through faith.

--Faith and knowledge are different. Faith is limitless.

V11-12" Every words that are abandoned " This means that we should value God's word.. This is the key to build a strong foundation of the Lord with You.

To be with him is safetiness for He is the only begotten Son that the Lord gave to us.


GOD'S COMMAND :
V13 - Be strong and courageous. (Joshua 1:9 ) For the Lord you God will be with you wherever yo go.
That's why Peter and John stood still for their words.
V17: - They forced them to tell what they know but they said " I will give you the right to judge on this. What is righteous in the Lord's eyes.
TO FOLLOW YOU OR TO FOLLOW THE LORD?
The Lord have commanded us to follow Him. But before we get to finally reach Him, We have to walk through a lot of challenges, to know what His will is.
V30-31 RESPONSE OF GOD.
for thos who has strong faith in the Lord We have seen how the Lord answered our questions, Our Problems in life. Why?
Because They're filled with the Holy Spirit and they're bravely scattering the word of GOD.

V32. UNITE.
If we, believers have one goal in this life, we should have the unity, the power of one to overcome struggles in our life, in our church,
Christians must have one set of mind.

GOD'S PROMISE.
V12: Salvation is found in no one else, and there is no other name.
The Lord has promised that who ever believes in Him and accept Him must be saved.

V22 - Praise God for everything
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise (2Peter 3:9a)
V30 -  God's grace works
Because of the strength that comes from the Lord, they continued testifying/ speaking the truth. ( the ressurection, God promised grace in all of them.)
V34 - They were blessed
God blessed them everything they needed . He provided what is lack from these people.
God gave them all they need because they follow, they praise, they believe, and because, their salvation is true.

God's warning
V17 You should have speak nothing but the truth, The Lord said.
Let the truth prevail. Yes at first it will make us miserable, but believe me, it will set you free.

V26 - We have to get ready for everything that would happen if we truly believe in Christ, This say's that maybe we might encounter arguments, misunderstanding. Yes, because we're believers but not all that surrounds us will believe.
Maybe the Lord is not calling them yet, but i know, the time will come.. The Lord Him self will touch their hearts.. You know this is what i'm praying eversince. :)



PERSONAL APPLICATION.
Praise God for this wonderful Verse.

I learned how to...

Stand up for God

- SPEAK TRUTH

-STRONG FAITH

-STAND STILL

-SALVATION

-PRAISE

-BELIEVE

-GRACE OF GOD

Those words became my key to strengthen my faith to God.
The Lord promised me that he will never leave me as long as i will stand firm to Him.

The Lord is so great in my life because His grace is sufficient..

Even if i dont deserve His Love.. He still gives me what i need.

He is patient. 

I believe that the Lord has plans for me 

I know that someday, these rough road that i'm travelling on will be 

my path to success, Maybe he just wants me to Discover something for myself.

But i believe God will use this moment, or shall i say these things that i'm experiencing on to change my life.

-BELIEVE THAT MY GOD WILL NEVER LEAVE ME.

-HUMBLE DOWN MYSELF WHEN I FEEL PRIDE.

-LET ANGER FILL WITH LOVE

-FAITH STRENGTHENS ME.

-LISTEN TO GOD.

-IT IS NOT SELF CENTERED ATTITUDE.

PATIENCE WORTH

-EVERYTHING THAT SURROUNDS YOU IS GOD'S INSTRUMENT.

-GOD IS FAITHFUL

-HE IS PRINCE OF PEACE

Life is too short to enjoy and entertain sadness in your life..
Just face those challenges and tell your self, 

I'll be a better person someday :)








HAVE A GREAT DAY!
GODBLESS.
